for the aro ask game 1, 14 and 16 (also hi)

hi hiiii bestie how's it goinnn

When did you realize you were arospec?

Honestly, I... have no idea. It definitely was a long process. I think the thought first started rotating in my head about two years ago when one of my friends told me they had a crush on me. It was definitely flattering and I tried so hard to feel the same towards them, with (obviously) little success. But it got me wondering whether any of my previous crushes were genuine or if they were all just a product of me trying to fit in with my peers who were developing crushes left and right.

Then the JaidenAnimations aroace video came out (we all know which one) and another few months later I read Alice Oseman's Loveless, and it was at that point that I realized "feeling the same amount of attraction to everyone" doesn't necessarily mean panromantic if that same amount is precisely zero. 😂 In a way, that book was the final nail in the coffin, and I "came out to myself" as aro a few weeks later, I think.

So the short answer is "a bit more than a year ago, probably?" 😂

14. What are some stereotypes about arospec individuals that annoy you the most?

Probably the "cold, heartless aro". Society has associated lovelessness with evilness for so long that part of the aro community began pushing back with "actually being aro doesn't make you loveless!! we can still love platonically!!!", and now if you're like me and you are loveless who doesn't love their friends/family/others, you're cast out by society AND by your fellow aromantics alike, AND it makes you hate yourself for not being able to feel an emotion ppl arbitrarily decided is necessary for being a good person.

(I realize the irony in me telling I don't love my friends in response to an ask from a friend but uh. shhh)

16. Do you have any arospec OCs, if so tell us about them?

all my OCs are aroace until specified otherwise, duh

anyway as a (partially) MaDD-focused blog I like to talk abt my OCs/paras in their own posts so here's a quick rundown & I can make a separate post abt them if anyone's curious:

Amy - she's loveless aroace & autistic who makes it a point to go against as many of society's expectations towards social interactions and relationships as possible. She revels in being the "loner heartless machine" stereotype bc if people are going to call her weird either way, why force herself to be something she isn't?

Thalia - their arospec-ness is pretty recent so I'm still figuring things out. They're your most stereotypical people-pleaser soft uwu smol bean good boi aka the one most likely to be assumed "too pure for sexual thoughts". So obviously I had to make them aroallo, after all if romance is the purest form of human existence but sex is evil then what does that make someone who's interested in physical intimacy but not love? Luckily they're close friends with Amy so they have someone to share these worries with who understands and helps dismantle these baseless ideas.

Plus I have two non-human characters who don't feel attraction as a species basis so I'm not sure if they can be considered arospec in the traditional sense

what are you in school for/what is your thesis on? i have trouble with using too many sources. my bibliography for this semester's term paper is like four damn pages long

i’m in school for english!! and, overall, my thesis is on gender in lord alfred tennyson’s idylls of the king (basically king arthur legend with victorian ideals). more specifically, my paper is focusing on four couples (gareth/lynette, geraint/enid, lancelot/guinevere, and guinevere/arthur) and how societal expectations of gender are enforced/defied/navigated within each couple. even that is kinda simplifying it, not that i think that i need to “water down” my ideas for them to be understandable, i’m just currently in the state of “i am so frustrated and tired rn that i am using like 10% of my brain” ajkdsjkdsjkds

i see the irony in me, an english major, bitching abt having to use A Lot of sources but my justification is that i have arguments that are supported by the text itself and that i know i can argue, and while i can def use these sources as points of comparison/disagreement, it’s just frustrating that for So Long we were told that these sources Make Or Break Our Paper and then my advisor was like “no??? i want your ideas, not another writer’s???” 

(like, i relied too much on my secondary sources for the first 11 pages of my essay and my advisor made me rewrite them completely. like “open up a new document and restart my thesis” completely)

and tbh usually i don’t bitch abt sources bc i like integrating other texts but like. it’s just frustrating that i was told by professors who aren’t my advisor that i should be quoting other sources at least 2 to 3 times each page and that thesis is basically just “us connecting what other people say with our source text” and then my advisor (imo rightfully so) was like “i completely disagree with that, i want to see how your argument differs from what your sources say” so sometimes i feel like i’m just shoehorning in outside sources, which doesn’t feel fair to my writing or the writers i’m citing akjdkjsdjk

i feel like being able to integrate secondary sources is very important in writing!! having the option to agree or disagree with a writer and then expand on your beliefs can be very fun and interesting!!! but, for example, one of my really good friends has told me abt how her thesis doesn’t feel like Her Thesis, but instead she’s just repeating what other people have already said. so it just feels like there was so much emphasis put on Use Your Secondary Sources These Are So Important Make Sure To Talk About What Other People Have Already Said that we had to sideline our own ideas, to a degree

15 Tips For ACTUALLY Writing ✍🏼

Disclaimer: Some of these tips are ones I’ve come across on social media and some are from my own personal experience and research. These tips don’t necessary apply to novel writing just really for any kind of creative writing such as: comics, fan fictions, essays, scripts, etc…

Tip #1 Reward Yourself

 Working is a lot easier when you know there is something to gain from all that work. Whatever that may be. If you are someone who has an income and at least 20-100 dollars they can set aside. Pay yourself to write, for as many amount of pages, words, or scenes you write, pay yourself and use the money to buy yourself whatever it is your heart desires. And for those of you who don’t make much money instead- reward yourself with something you love to do. Maybe it’s playing video games for the rest of the day, or watching a YouTube video, or even taking a nap or just some time to yourself. Personally, I have a piggy bank that I put all spare money into and for every page I write at the end of the month I get that money. So if I write 15 pages in the whole month I’ve got 15 dollars to buy whatever it is I want, maybe more pencils or snacks!

Tip #2 Hold Yourself Accountable: 

If you are someone who gets embarrassed easily or who has a lot of guilt find a family member or friend who can make sure you are writing. For example: If you let them know your word goal everyday is 100 words have them ask you about it and be honest with both them and yourself. Heck, a friend on the Internet or posting on your favorite social media platform your success or failure can go along way to make sure you stick to your goals. I tend to post how many words I write in a day on Twitter. My followers tend to congratulate me on my success and I like to have that positive reaction daily so I stick to meeting my goals.

Tip #3 Writing is Practice:

 If you’re are scared that your writing is bad I can tell you first hand that not writing or being scared to write something bad is the worst thing you can do if you are fearful of sucking because you’re going to at least for a little while but the best part about humans is that if we were to do any one thing for days upon days we will inevitably get better at it. So if you write constantly than you are 100% guaranteed to get good. I have an old fan fiction that's been left on the Internet for years and I constantly go back to it to see my massive improvement and it excites me to think that I will continue to get even better.

Tip #4 Track Your Progress:

If you follow me on Twitter than you already know that I have a planner that has stickers for every 500 words I write in a day. I originally got this idea from Alexa Donne’s sticker method here on YouTube and have altered it slightly to fit my personal writing journey. I really like putting more stickers in my planner and it fulfills the child in me to see visually how much I’m achieving as well as I will purposely write more if I am close to receiving another sticker. Tally marks, or a spreadsheet on excel can also do wonders or anything that allows you to visually see your progress.

Tip #5 Set Low Low Word Counts: 

On days that I feel shitty I usually only expect me to hit 250 words because I know on my worst day I can achieve that- Also if I hit 250 I am only halfway to my regular word count of 500 so I strongly advise setting something stupidly achieve able. 20 words? 50 words? You can write that! So do that and when you've got the hang of it build it up. Just understand that the smaller the word count the longer it'll take to write it.

Tip #6 Writing Sprints: 

Writing Sprints are probably the only thing on this list I don’t practice mainly because time limits stress me out and I tend to work quickly anyway. However if you need that extra push or have very limited time to get some writing done than I encourage a writing sprint. 10 minutes to write 300 words? Or 20 minutes to write as much as you can. It prevents that critical side of you from coming out because like sonic you gotta go fast.

Tip #7 You’re Not Writing A Book:

 Now for my aspiring authors like myself understand that you, especially if you are on your rough draft, are a long way from publication and that's drafting is just putting words on paper, bad words, good words, little notes of incoherent babble. It’s a mess and you are the only person who will ever have to see it. It’s a story and it’s like telling one verbally you are just trying to convey the general message it’s sloppy and you’re mumbling and stumbling and repeating and backtracking. But as long there is a complete story no matter how sucky it’s still complete.

Tip #8 Quantity is 10x’s Better Than Quality: 

To add on to last point I suggest in prewriting and drafting to just put whatever the fuck comes to mind down. Especially in the prewriting phase when you are brainstorming and outlining just fit as many wild ideas as possible because in those times where nothing seems to be coming that will be your saving grace every single time. Because having too many ideas is better than none. When I was brainstorming I sat with my boyfriend when he was playing games and generated all kinds of ludicrous ideas but also came across a lot of awesome and happy accidents. You have to be brave and just dump whatever out and save it for later and dig through the trash.

Tip #9 Give Your Book Some Essence: 

Your book has a certain feel that only you know this comes from playlists for scenes, characters, and plot- you've got aesthetic boards for your characters, maybe you have vines that remind you of your characters. Find those things and jot them down, put them in a folder or document and hold them close. I have Pinterest boards for my characters and settings. I’ve got playlists, and these things fuel my writing and creativity. I understand my book and I am reminded that no one can write it like me.

Tip #10 Nothing is Set In Stone: 

Unless you are carving your book in a stone tablet or writing your book across the walls in sharpie than you can always go back, you can always fix and delete. We often rewrite from paper or go back into our word documents and mix things around. Write shit until you have the courage to fix it.

Tip #11 Write With A Person/Person(s) In Mind:

Writing for an audience is hard to envision for me, so instead I write for a person or a couple people in mind. Which falls in line with my writing, I’ve always written for people whether it be classmates, friends, or people on the Internet and soon when I write a book for everyone to read. Writing for me has always been about writing for others and getting through drafting and writing in general is trying to get reactions, laughs, and smiles out of my readers. If you write for someone who loves you then you will always feel comfort in pleasing them and that no matter what you write it doesn’t matter what others think because they will love it regardless. I often write for my boyfriend, mother, brother, and my best friend. The four people who are close to me and are guaranteed to enjoy my writing and I can guarantee that you too, have someone that will love what you write and you’ll want to please them.

Tip #12 Write For Children/ Write Silly:

If you feel like you have to write a story that needs to have complex prose and have subtleties and be nuanced which is nice and all but if you are struggling it’s okay to just write like you are writing for a young one, someone old enough to read but young enough to understand basic storytelling. And if writing once upon a time puts you in the mood to write more than all power to it. You can always delete that once upon a crap later. Just tell us the story. Hell I use to do this kind of stuff with outlining which was fucking hard for me at first when I was a hardcore pantser sometimes I would write really silly. For example, Henry eats food, and he falls dead, the village knows the food is bad, food is suspicious, main character Zora will find it out, it’s the storm the storm has ruined the food. Oh no! This is just a simple way for me to get many thoughts down and to easily expand and not feel like I need to write something perfect.

Tip #13 Write Dialogue First and Finish The Rest Later: 

It’s pretty self explanatory but you need to just get dialogue done first. When I wrote Dragon Age fan fiction this is when I first used this. It was a sure fire way for me to get words on paper because Dragon Age’s dialogue is a big part of the dragon age experience if you aren’t already aware. I usually get distracted by dialogue tags and description and slows me down significantly so write all the dialogue and figure the other stuff later.

Tip #14 Surround Yourself With Positivity: 

If you’ve got friends and family who support you like I am lucky enough to have people who support me, even if you don’t have people in your everyday life who support you then it’s a good idea to join a writing community whether it be on discord, Instagram, Twitter, whatever find your writer friends and hold them close because having some friends to cheer you on, support you, and fall back on does all the good.

Tip #15 Character and Setting Visual Stimuli: 

Because I am horrible with description of people and setting I found that have pictures of my characters and settings is the easiest way to describe when I can see it somewhere other than in my head. I strongly suggest utilizing this because you also add on your own little things if the picture doesn’t fit entirely.

hey uh ib is... como se dice... a Fuck. like as someone who is still trying to recover psychologically after graduating and getting my diploma. like i was Smart Good At School and hung out with Smart Good At School and we were all dying the entire time. you may have some issues but like. shit's fucked man

(Another Anonymous said: Hey don’t stress yourself too much with ib stuff, they suck now and are so freaking stressful but they are definitely steps that will help you down the road (coming from someone who definitely credits all the ia and shit I had to write to helping me rewrite a 10 page college paper 3 days before it’s due and get an a on it) these things have their place in you academic journey (also don’t stress the ioc’s too much you have that knowledge in your brain you can do it!))

i guess before i start: thank you two. person 1 for validation in my pain and 2 for encouragement that ill be okay and that it isnt all for naught. i appreciate both of yall! 

but its my birthday at 1:40 am and im fucking SAD cause im up trying to write my entire bio ia due friday after some Complications came up so this is gonna be a mostly negative retrospective of my last two years and the circumstances that ive lived in due to the ib

i refuse to put this under a cut yall scroll past word walls anyways

so heres my hot and absolutely original take: i recognize that ib is extremely beneficial in certain regards. i know from everyone who took it telling me that its good for college experience and all that kind of stuff, both on a knowledge/content level and on, as person 2 describes, an “i cant get off my ass to write this paper in time” level and being able to compensate for that. i agree with that! I am extremely grateful for an increased class difficulty, especially in the fields where i knew what was happening already and spent classes bored until ib. and like! ib english is the first goddamn time ive EVER talked about the evils of imperialism and colonialism in an academic setting. that shit is vital to our future and yet no normal class talks about it!!! its terrible! and ib history is the first time ive ever enjoyed a history class and gotten even a margin of a good feeling out of it. like there are some really good parts of ib that ive written every damn college entry essay ive gotten on. i Know.

but like okay lets start with the fact that going into this that they (as in all ib teachers) were like “oh itll break you out of procrastination! itll teach you to constantly be studying!!! its what you need for college!!!!!” when it has done all of jack and shit to help us achieve that. its just kind of put us in the lions den and let us scramble at the walls for a foothold to get out or at least survive, maimed and depraved. if it sees us stopping to catch our breath, it shoots at our feet. the ibo extorts our misery to feed their mirth

lets also acknowledge that dumb fucks who take full ib, or even worse, those taking pseudo full ib (ie all classes but no diploma cause their extended essay busted and they gave up ie me) mostly take it due to extreme pressure, be it from their schools, their family, or their own psyche, saying they arent good enough if they dont take the highest offered classes, or even more that if they arent doing well in those classes its a product of their own shortcomings and then spend most of the rest of the time in ib degrading themselves because no matter how much time they put in they cant be the best and all that fun stuff. ib kids are put on a sort of pedestal by the school but then left on their own. 

i, of course, see this as a much greater academic institution integrated mindset that needs to be addressed and challenged, but to force it on kids who have to not only go through with it for the next four years, but also because its targeted at these kids that are higher achieving “gifted and talented” fucking whatever, most likely the rest of their lives?

its straight up psychologically damaging to give such a rigorous course load and no help for the effects and self esteem issues from it, no help for the people who dont know how to give up and instead run themselves in the fucking dirt and strain themselves to the edges of their goddamn sanity, spending what little time is left in their adolescence treating themselves like shit

idealistically, ib is wonderful. i think it carries out some of its best traits (integrating global thinking, allowing a more freeform discussion of many things, etc), but i also recognize how absolutely full of shit it is in many corners (regarding encouraging service, intellectual honesty, whatever else), one, and that a lot of people are just.. not up to the task. they may have the ability intellectually, but not mentally. i firmly believe that anyone can do anything if they set their minds to it but i have become the victim of my own philosophy because that came at the expense of my well-being.

and the fact that when i tried to tell my coordinator this she a) did not let me just NOT do the ee despite how strained i was(which i didnt end up doing, lick my whole dick mrs kurtz) and stole my summer from me because between being depressed as hell at gsp i was a nervous wreck about what they could do to me or how i was going to accomplish anything that i needed to, and that i havent had a proper break from school in three straight years, that im still running on empty essentially and b) that when i told the other ib coordinator, 4 months later, theres not a souls chance in hell that i was gonna fucking do it, that she lectured me and made me cry in class about how “you cant see the forest for the trees” “thisll help you later in life” “youre throwing away jobs” all that fun stuff like

its evil

the lack of care that often goes into it

the extreme magnitude of work that, sure, is feasibly possible for a 16-18 year old to do, but here theyre expected to

the fact that the classes fall in a time where gpa is so absolutely vital to colleges and scholarships (and given that its these ib kids’ personality and intellectual dispositions, even more so - both in esteem and necessity)

the fact that so many of the classes and so much of the coursework is empty, ultimately

its kind of a bad system

not even to MENTION the egotistical complexes, both inwardly as addressed and outwardly as in being the most godawful kind of people that manifests in these people that think theyre gods gift to the world cause they took ib and “if you spend time bitching about ib you deserve to fail because that was time you could have spent working” like you sound like the worst kind of person and i dont fucking care. theres a girl in my classes who is so upset every time someone doesnt listen to her because she thinks everything she has to say is the goddamn gospel and ib really attracts these kinds of people and its the WORST

#this isnt even organized i dont fucking care i hhhhhate ib #like im glad i took it to some extent and i think this is certainly a two year span that will affect me for the rest of my life #but the psychological scars are so deep in my grey matter that i cry #every time i think about them because my worldview has gotten #so warped that i dont think i can really ever recover my self esteem #im TERRIFIED my college years are gonna be a replica of ib #like yknow? #anyways #long post #ib #yknow i was vaguing someone specific but it applies to like 5 people in that same class #Anonymous

Where have I been & what have I been writing lately?

Nearly three years ago I fell down Alice’s rabbit holeand started following signs – Tell Your Story. This Way!I’ve taken lots of detours. Thankfully I can see a light at the end of the tunnel!

Detours

I detoured to assist writers to tell their story via email Q&A’s, I’vepresentednumerous workshops and talks at the U3A, community centres and libraries – even on a cruise ship (which stopped me jumping overboard!)And I’ve completed my book

How to Tell Your Story A-Z. I’ve also been filing through memories to write my complicated memoir.(‘Unfinished!’)

Remembering 1950’s Rural school teaching I’ve been writing a fake tell-all memoir –Miss Abigail Peabody.

(A Mostly True Memoir) (Unfinished!)

Now I can assure fellow writers the process of writing a memoir or an autobiography(your life from cradle to grave) is hard work and it will become your passion.

Many prime ministers and famous celebs dash off auto bio 700-page tomes. Lesser mortals will feel good (or bad) writing their memoirs. A memoir being parts or events of a lifeis doable!

Where to start?

It’s easy to start. Well relatively easy. You have the plot, characters and setting. You can begin at any place but be prepared. It takes a mammoth effort to work through the difficult, seemingly boring bits to the last page.Then you need to take a deep breath. Get ready to revise, rewrite and edit.It will be worth it!

I believe I’ve nailed the essentials you need to ‘Tell Your Story’ in my (Five Steps? or Ten Top Tips?)

 PS: If you’re cashed up you can employ a Publishing Consultant, Ghostwriter, editor/s, or a biographer to assist you in writing your story. (Caution: This couldbe easier or more difficult than writing your story!)

PPS: Leave out writing that could be construed as libel – writing that could be injurious to others. It’s not so much a case of black or white but of the greys between.However it’s your story. If you decide to leavedodgy content in – your story could become a brilliant best-seller novel!Woo Hoo!

Three books: bios or memoirs that have influenced me.

1. Storyteller. The Life of Roald Dahl by Donald Sturrock.

Roald Dahl is my favourite children’s author.Reading his stories kept children sitting on the mat during storytime in my library. Storytelleris a masterly biography and an example of how to include private papers, references and other end-page info in a book.

Storyteller: The Authorized Biography of Roald Dahl By Donald Sturrock

2. I Remember Nothing And Other Reflections by Nora Ephron.  

This book is hilarious musings on ageing by the writer of the New York Times bestseller Heartburn,and writer and director of the brilliantscreenplays When Harry Met Sally, Silkwood and Sleepless in Seattle.

(I poached Nora Ephron’s structure of including recipes from her title Heartburnand used in my children’s novel One Wild Week With My Grandmother.)

I Remember Nothing: And Other Reflections By Nora Ephron

3. Thinking About Memoir by Abigail Thomas.

This book is a perfectly designed, usefulhandbook. I purchased it 15 years ago according to the bookshop tag and it’sbeen hidden in my bookshelf before I thought of writing my memoir. I love Abigail Thomas’s quote, ‘Memoir is the story of how we got here from there.’

Thinking About Memoir (AARP) By Abigail Thomas

What purchase of $100 has impacted on your life in the last six months?

Last week I purchased a pack of Artline 220 Super Fine 0.2mm Fine Line Black pens and I ordered 10 Chunky notebooks online. Both purchases added up to about $100. My comforting purchases are stacked in a cupboard. Now I have a supply of pens and notebooks to record ideas, characters, plots & dialogue – and I’ll be able to capture that best-selling 3am idea!

How has failure set you up for later success?

I believe if you enjoy writing the only way a writer can fail is to give up. And it helps to have a skin like a salt-water crocodile to cope with rejections. Writers have to accept that rejection will be part and parcel of the professional writing process if you want to publish your writing.

Don’t bin or delete a rejection straight away. Sometimes an agent or editor will write encouraging and helpful comments. They may even say they’re interested in reading your work again – if you do a ‘rewrite’.

It’s up to you.

I’ve known editors, agents or publishers to change their mind. They ask to see your work again and they accept your submission after they’ve rejected it!

Rejection can have positive as well as negative outcomes. On the positive side, rejection can inspire you to improve your writing skills.

You can re-evaluate your writing after a rejection – rewrite or stand by what you’ve written.

If you self-publish you don’t have to worry about rejections. Then again online reviews can be dodgy and hurtful. And you’ll probably feel rejected if sales numbers are low.

Do a little war dance and start writing again!

Are there any quotes you live your life by?

When I was a 15-year old and found myself a job as a Lois Lane reporter in a newspaper my grandmother’s advise was to ‘Work Hard! Work as hard as you can!

Be polite and smile!’ This has proved excellent advise in my 25-year career as a teacher librarian, and 24 years as a working writer.

What is the best writing resource investment you’ve made?

My second-hand clunky Remington Rand typewriter I purchased when I was 15. I paid it off in instalments. Then came the Apple computers I purchased (and have loved) beginning in the 80s.

What’s an unusual habit you have?

In winter when I spend long hours at the computer I wear a woolly, faded blue dressing gown over my clothes. I enjoy the startled looks of visitors when they think they’ve disturbed a sick old lady – not knowing this old writer has been living the most exciting life typing chapter after chapter of her scandalous novel.

What advice would you give to a smart, driven, aspiring author?

Make sure you use a correct chair, and your writing space is arranged ergonomically.

Keep a glass of water on your desk. Be organised. Plan daily blocks of time within your week or a set amount of time over a week. Develop a routine.

Don’t wait for the ‘muse’ or for inspiration. Just write! Set yourself writing goals for each writing session. Aim for a word count goal of 500 to 1,000, a set number of hours, or a specific number of scenes. Work to deadlines. File or basket your work so you can locate it at a minute’s notice. (Good practice in working with editors!)

Keep learning your writer’s craft across new media. Appreciate your imagination. It’s a writer’s gift.

In the last five years how have you become better at saying ‘No’?

I’ve finally learnt ‘The Gracious No’ Reply. This is an excellent excuse for writers who are desperate to find time to write. ‘The Gracious No’ conversation can go like this. ‘Are you free to meet tomorrow?’ A writer’s reply, ‘Just let me check my diary.’

Then after the writer checks they’re diary. ‘Sorry I’d love to meet with you but I have to take the goldfish to the vet.’ Fortunately the goldfish recovers! And the writer has time to write.

What marketing tactics should authors avoid?

I haven’t a clue. Obviously dodgy social media but I’m rubbish at marketing. However I’ve made a list of DIY Marketing Tips I intend to follow to market my two novels – The Governess, and The Secret Memoir of Abigail Peabody, and my latest non-fiction How-2 Write Your Life Story A-Z: Everything U Need 2 Know

• Don’t underestimate the value of word-of-mouth advertising. Think locally… contact newspapers, radio & TV stations, bookshops, libraries, and local markets to promote your book.

• Select the pricing of your book with care. You need to check similar books and decide whether to match, undercut, ignore their pricing and/or offer free copies for a certain time.

• Make yourself available for photo shoots, interviews and to write promotional pieces about your book.

• Use marketing tools such as: posters, reviews, interviews, media appearances, podcasts and social media.

• Write short form copy e.g. sound bites, tweets, taglines and headlines to market your life story. Be prepared to describe your memoir in 140 characters or less. Have a list of snappy phrases and sound bites ready-to-go.

• Submit your life story for competitions and to be reviewed.

What new realisation helped you achieve your goals?

Just recently three of my writerly friends have passed away leaving unfinished novels on their desks. I decided I wasn’t going to die with two unfinished novels and a How-2 trapped inside me so I completed my projects. They’re in typescript stacks on my desk and in folders on my computer.

Now I can start writing short story! A definitely shorter project! Or Essays!

What do you do when you feel overwhelmed and lose focus?

I divide a writing project into doable steps – words, pages, chapters? Even volumes!

(I’ve spent two years of my life writing the multi-volume The Macmillan Illustrated Encyclopedia, (First and Second Editions). I enjoyed working through volume after volume. When each volume was completed I took it to the publisher.

I give myself a ‘cushion deadline’ – an easy, or an earlier deadline if I have a professional deadline to meet. (You never know when you have to take the cat to the vet!)

I don’t beat myself up if I have a Bad-writing day, week or months. I accept King-hits from life events. You have to start again. Set yourself a new goal, and a new cushion deadline.

11 Questions Tag

Thank you @kraken-spines for tagging me!

1. What genre/type of book do you typically avoid? What would change your mind about it?   I generally avoid YA books. Obligatory disclaimer that I have nothing against people who do read them, I’m just not interested in them. I’m not sure what would change my mind about it, as it’s not just one thing I dislike about them, but most of the characteristics of the genre.

2. How often do you use public libraries? In high school I used libraries a lot, as I spent most of my time outside of class in the library (some of them were both school libraries and open to the public), and I’d also borrow lots of books during the holidays. Now I’m at uni, I utilise public libraries less, as during the semester I’m very busy and don’t have a lot of time to do extra reading (and I always feel pressured by the return date). I’ve also got a lot of books on my TBR, so I’m working through them at the moment.

3. Would you rather read a completed series or one that’s currently ongoing? Definitely a completed series, I love reading a bunch of books in a series all at once, it helps me get into the world of the series. I find if I wait between books I forget what’s happened and find it harder to get absorbed into the books’ world. That’s why I’m waiting for all of the current series of Warriors to be out so so I can read them all at once.

4. Pretend you were starting a Little Free Library (or something similar) and you have duplicates of all the books you own, which four books would you choose for your community?

Jewish Literacy: it’s a hefty and beautifully decorated book all about Jewish religion and culture. I found it very good as an introductory book, and often reread sections if I want to remind myself of something. I think it would be cool to get the community to learn more about Judaism.

The Shock Doctrine: this book is about how capitalist governments and corporations either deliberately engineer or take advantage of existing disaster situations to force a regime of neoliberalisation onto the vulnerable economies. I think it’s an eye-opening book and one that effectively demonstrates the dangers of capitalism.

Warriors - Into the Wild: I had to include a Warriors book, and this is the first one of all the series. It’s such a special series to me and the more people who can enter this magical world the better.

The Marx-Engels Reader: while it would be quite the ask to expect people browsing a little free library to read the entirety of the book on their own, I think it would be cool to start a reading group to collaboratively work through the essential works of Marx and Engels, as I think they have very important things to say about how our world works.

5. What book would you recommend to one of your favorite authors? I would probably recommend My Israel Question to Simon Schama. Simon Schama is a Jewish author of many history books, including one of my favourite books, The Story of the Jews. I love his writing style, but I heartily disagree with his support of the state of Israel. My Israel Question is a book very critical of Israel, written by a Jewish leftist. I’d hope that Schama would take some of the message on board, but it’s probably a long shot. People tend to be pretty set in their ways on subjects like this.

6. If you had to write an essay about any book, which would you choose and why? Possibly The Shock Doctrine, the book I mentioned earlier. I’m doing a course at uni at the moment about the neoliberalisation of the criminal justice system, and I think I could link some concepts from the book and course together to make an effective essay.

7. What is/was your parent or guardian’s favorite book? Have  you read it? Do you like it too? I just asked my dad and his favourite series of books is the Lensman series by E. E. ‘Doc’ Smith. It’s a classic series of science fiction books written in the 1940s-50s, in the space opera style. I haven’t read them myself, but I might one day to see what they’re like.

8.  If you’re bored and have a pen in hand do you write, doodle, or something else? I have a habit of when I have a pen and paper and nothing to do, of writing out the Fibonacci sequence. It started as a teenager when I was very interested in mathematical sequences and the habit has stuck with me.

9. Do you prefer slow or fast paced books? I like slow paced books. I like being able to get really absorbed in the story and the world of the book, and get into detail about the characters and what’s going on in them. The main series of the Warriors books are 6 books of approximately 300 pages, and I find that a good length, but I’ve recently started reading the Warriors super editions, which are standalone books detailing the lives of individual cats, and are about 500 pages long, and I’m really enjoying the slower build and greater detail that goes into them (not to say I don’t love the main ones though).

10. If two of your favorite authors were forced to co-write a book or series what would it look like? This is an interesting question, as the Warriors books are actually co-written by several authors, and they’re my favourite ones. They’ve perfected their writing style so much that you’re not able to tell they’re written by several different authors, as the style is very engaging and consistent.

11. What if you were given the opportunity to rewrite a book (that you liked or didn’t like) and ‘fix it’ how would your version differ from the original? And what book would you choose to fix up? There’s a book I like but find somewhat flawed: This Changes Everything by Naomi Klein (also author of The Shock Doctrine). TCE details how capitalism is responsible for the climate crisis, and how the unchecked growth that is essential for the system’s maintenance is unsustainable for the environment and life on earth. I think that aspect is very good, but I don’t think Klein’s solutions go far enough. She rightly rejects the concept of using capitalistic market forces to ‘solve’ the problem, but instead of advocating for a complete overthrow of the capitalist system, she instead argues for regulation of it by government. If I had the choice, I’d rewrite the book to be more explicitly anticapitalist in nature. -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Here are my 11 questions:

If you could live in any book world/universe, which one would it be?

If you could make a candle that represented your favourite book, what scents would you choose?

What’s your least favourite thing about your favourite book?

If you had to (or wanted to) write a book, what would it be about?

What’s the most books you’ve ever read in a year?

What’s your favourite language system from a book (e.g. like Elvish from LOTR)?

Pick a book you’ve read set in a fantasy world. What do you think would happen in that world if modern technology were introduced?

Vice versa, what would happen in a contemporary book you’ve read if you introduced magic?

Picking a book you’ve read of a certain genre, how do you think the book would go if you switched it to another genre (e.g. space opera to high fantasy)?

Would you rather read a book with enlightening social commentary but bad writing, or a book in which the author expressed regressive and unpleasant social ideas, but was very well written?

Pick a book you’ve read in which animal companion/s feature. What do you think would happen in the book if the animal/s were given the power of speech?

I tag these people, but as always, if you’ve already done it or just don’t want to, don’t feel obligated to:

Here is a dramatic reenactment of writing in schools (with translations) taken from the esteemed writing teacher Donald M. Murray‘s 1982 essay The Maker’s Eye: Revising Your Own Manuscripts:

STUDENT: “It’s done!” (*phew*).”

TEACHER: “Did you revise?” (translation: “Did your ideas emerge and evolve? Did you clarify your meaning?”)

STUDENT: “I finished it!” (translation: “Just give me a grade! I’m done.”)

TEACHER: (*sigh*) “Hand it in…it’s due” (translation: “Need to move on.”)

In his essay, Murray explained, “When students complete a first draft, they consider the job of writing done – and their teachers too often agree.”

Murray contrasts these attitudes with the attitudes of professional writers who after completing a first draft, “usually feel that they are at the start of the writing process.” He quotes the writer Roald Dahl as saying:

“By the time I am nearing the end of a story, the first part will have been reread and altered and corrected at least one hundred and fifty times. I am suspicious of both facility and speed. Good writing is essentially rewriting. I am positive of this.”

Murray’s point was that in the professional writer’s world, or the real world, writers have time… or they find time… in order to make time for revision.

That kind of dedicated time for revision that exists in the real world does not exist in schools. Classroom periods are organized most often in chunks of 42, 60, or 84 minutes. The result is that the authentic revision on a piece of writing will take more time than the scheduled school day offer (after all, “there is a curriculum to cover!”)

Complicating the need for dedicated time is the demand for student writing to grade in order to meet assessment schedules: progress reports, quarters, mid-terms, trimesters, etc. That need to grade everything a student writes-drafts, rewrites, final product- is the least authentic part of the writing process.

Just check with Mark Edmundson in his book Why Write?  In the 30 chapters Edmundson uses to answer his question Why Write? the one reason missing is To Get a Grade. In other words, the major reason that students write in school is the one reason missing from the long list of reasons a writer gives for writing.

Murray also noted that students see revision “as an indication that they have failed to do it right the first time,” and to be honest, many teachers have not worked to disavow their students of this belief.

So how to improve teacher and student attitudes towards revision? When to find the time?

Why not start on National Writing Day?

National Writing Day is based on George Orwell’s essay, “Why I Write” and is celebrated annually in October.  Orwell understood the difficulty in writing (“Writing a book is a horrible, exhausting struggle”) to edit out the “purple prose” or those “sentences without meaning.” Orwell saw revision as necessary for good writing.

So, on this National Writing Day, (10/20/17) you may decide that students do not need to start something new in response to the suggested “Why I Write.” But if they do, they could practice revising their reason(s) why they write.

Lesson Suggestions for National Writing Day

Teachers can take this opportunity to promote revision, and here are several suggestions for highlighting the importance of revision on National Writing Day:

Share famous author revisions to show how they revise. Some suggestions include:

#gallery-0-5 { margin: auto; } #gallery-0-5 .gallery-item { float: left; margin-top: 10px; text-align: center; width: 20%; } #gallery-0-5 img { border: 2px solid #cfcfcf; } #gallery-0-5 .gallery-caption { margin-left: 0; } /* see gallery_shortcode() in wp-includes/media.php */

Charlotte’s Web draft #2 by E.B .White from The Annotated Charlotte’s Web, 1994.

Draft for Ellen Raskin’s “The Westing Game”

Carl Sagan’s Draft for “Contact”

FDR: Speech 12/7/1941

JK Rowling “The Order of the Phoenix” revisions

Use the audio and images” in “An Explanation of The Westing Game Manuscript Materials” that show the revisions made by YA author Ellen Raskin for The Westing Game.

  Share the well-circulated image of JKRowling’s revision process for Harry Potter’s Order of the Phoenix.

Share Kate DiCamillo’s drafts of the first chapter of Because of Winn-Dixie that also has her entertaining comments on each of the five revisions.

Share (with mature audiences only) the author John Green’s YouTube video explanation on “Why First Drafts Suck!” as he takes on National Novel Writing Month (NaNoWriMo)

Prepare for Halloween with the greatest horror story ever told by experiencing the chilling revisions on the draft of the opening lines of Chapter 7 of Frankenstein. There in Mary Shelley’s handwritten text  contains the spark of life for the Monster, “It breathed hard, and a convulsive motion agitated its limbs.”

Extend an invitation to Social Studies Teachers to share historical revisions such as FDR’s speech delivered on December 7, 1941, after the bombing of Pearl Harbor. Notable is the revision of the phrase “A day that will live in world history” for the iconic “infamy.”

Include Science teachers and share drafts from the prolific science writer (astronomer, astrophysicist) Carl Sagan from the website of the Library of Congress Manuscript Divison. There are twenty full drafts of his works in the archive including 355 pages of the first draft of his novel Contact, complete with revisions, is there in entirety.

Model your own revisions in your writing!

Other suggestions include:

1.Use the entire class period to let students revise a piece they have already written. (and no grading!)

2. Have students respond to quotes about revision made by authors:

James McBride (The Color of Water): “Writing is the act of failing at something all the time.”

Ernest Hemingway: “I rewrote the ending of Farewell to Arms 39 times before I was satisfied.”

Georgia Heard (poet): “Students need to be reminded that revision isn’t merely making a few cosmetic changes. Revision is seeing and then reseeing our words and practicing strategies that make a difference in our writing.”Pearl S. BuckI(“The Big Wave”) “If you start to revise before you’ve reached the end, you’re likely to begin dawdling with the revisions and putting off the difficult task of writing.”

 3. Build a lesson on the synonyms for revision; ave students discuss the differences in their meanings in order to answer the question, “Why I Revise”:

emendation

editing

updating

correction

change

review

amendment

modification

alteration

National Day of Writing: Friday, October 20th (#whyiwrite)

Whatever you choose to do with students, engaging them in the practice of revision IS engaging them in the practice of writing. Revision is the authentic writing that students need to do, so that they will, as Murray explained, grow to understand that “each word has the potential to ignite new meaning.”

For this 9th Annual National Writing Day, the question “Why I Write” could be answered with “in order to have something to revise,” as all writing is rewriting. This could give students and teachers just a little more time as Donald Murray had hoped, for revision, for “time for just another run at it, perhaps then…”

(This post? A total of 16 revisions over four days…”perhaps then” indeed!)

Teaching writing: discussion

 (08/06/17) Portfolio cover sheet (part 2): In this online activity, we answered the following questions about Cheung’s article. 

1) Choose one part that you particularly liked and propose a discussion about it. You may suggest a question for discussion.

2) Read and reply to at least two discussions in the forum.

My discussion:�� Sub-processes in writing (presented in Cheung's article)by Letícia Nazareth - Thursday, 8 June 2017, 12:10 AM 

   According to Paltridge et al (2009), there are some sub-processes in writing that happen in a certain order. First, authors create and select ideas, then organize the ideas in a "neat away". After that, they put them into sentences. Then, they revise (rewrite and improve their essays). Finally, they read and re-read the text, to make sure that it is good enough. 

   Although, according to Clark and Ivanic (1991), there are 16 stages in this process: acumulating knowledge and opinions; deciding how to take responsability; analyzing the assingment; planning; establising goals and purposes; establishing the writer identity; drafting; considering constraints of time and space; formulating the writer's own ideas; experiencing panic, pain and anguish; experiencing pleasure and satisfaction; revising; considering the reader; clarifying writer commitment to his/her idea; putting knowledge of the language to use; and making the copy neat. Some of them can occur at the same time and they do not follow a particular order.

    As a writer, I prefer Clark and Ivanic's opinion, because I noticed that, when I'm writing the introduction, for example, I'm both considering the reader, putting knowledge of the language to use and establishing goals and purposes. And, against Paltridge's theory, sometimes I read my text a lot of times before rewriting it. According to your own experience, as a writer, which theory better expresses your writing process? 

Replies:  Re: Sub-processes in writing (presented in Cheung's article)by Ingrid Rodrigues - Thursday, 8 June 2017, 3:44 PM 

Hi, Letícia! As a writer, I relate myself to Paltridge's vision about writing process. I realized that I do all the sub-processes, which Paltridge presents. When I write a text, I select ideas that may be used in my text. Then, I start  to write about these ideas and, after it, I rewrite as much as possible the text or the paragraph, in order to improve it. Thus, Paltridge's vision is more familiar to me than the others. 

Re: Sub-processes in writing (presented in Cheung's article)by

Luiza Gonçalves - Thursday, 8 June 2017, 5:20 PM

Hi, Leticia and Ingrid! I believe I do both depending on the text and how engaged I am with the subject. When I enjoy the theme, I like to think in all aspects that can make my text better to read: clarifying my commitment to my idea, considering the reader and so on. However, even when my writing process is closed to the theory of Paltridge et al, there is always the presence of one characteristic of the theory of Clark and Ivanic: the experience of panic, pain and anguish!

Re: Sub-processes in writing (presented in Cheung's article)by

Letícia Nazareth - Thursday, 8 June 2017, 9:14 PM

Yes, panic, pain and anguish are always present!

Re: Sub-processes in writing (presented in Cheung's article)by

Susanna Faria - Thursday, 8 June 2017, 10:14 PM

Hello, girls! I also liked this part of the text, Letícia! Depending on the text I am writing, I fit these different processes... In most of my university written assignments, I fit Paltridge's theory, but for some assignments that interests me the most, I fit Clark and Ivanic's theory. It is when I "dive" into the subject and experience "panic, pain and anguish" - with the blank page and with some topics that I find difficult to develop, though I do want to write about them - and when I also experience "pleasure and satisfaction" when I conclude the piece of writting.

Luiza’s discussion:  Writing processby Luiza Gonçalves - Thursday, 8 June 2017, 5:47 PM 

When I was reading this part of the text, I remembered of the school where I work correcting compositions. There, students of Ensino Médio struggle with compositions (specially essays), and one of the biggest reasons for that is the fact that they don't plan their text before writing it. Thus, most of the time, their texts have structural problems, and no coherence (external and internal). I always say to them that it is very important to think of the main points, to plan the role text and only then write, but even this is difficult to say. In ENEM, they only have 1 hour to write an essay! If we only consider the four sub-processes discussed by Paltridge et al. - and forget the Clark and Ivanic's theory -, it is already impossible to manage doing these four steps. However, the correctors of ENEM consider the organization of essays while correcting them, as organizing the ideas properly is essential for constructing good arguments. 

So, how us, as teachers, can change this students' mentality, and make them see that writing is a long process? When you were students you used to see writing as a process or not? How do you manage to write the essay of ENEM? Have you planned anything before writing it? (Sorry for asking too much)

My reply:  Re: Writing processby Letícia Nazareth - Thursday, 8 June 2017, 9:24 PM 

Hi, Luiza! As teachers, I think we can first discuss a theme with the students and even let them decide their favorite. Then, show videos, texts and even movies about it. After a better discussion between the students, we can ask them to work at home by doing a draft and an introduction, and finishing the text in class, maybe in pairs or alone - as they prefere. If we do this type of activity frequently, the students will naturally start to write faster, becoming prepared to write an essay like the one from ENEM. In just one hour.

When I was a student, although, I didn't use to see writing as a process. I have a bad habit of doing things too fast - and, when I was younger, I did them even faster. So, I guess I should have stopped and thought more about what I was going to write before really doing it. 

As I said, I usually do my tests fast, and I wrote a lot of compositions before ENEM, so I could write mine on time. But I remember that I didn't write an appropriate draft before writing the final version - I just put my main ideas on the paper and then wrote it in the appropriate structure. Now, I try to do it slowlier, thinking more before write. I guess we, as teachers, need to do the right processes in the right time, so that we can teach the students appropriately.

Bárbara’s discussion:  Teaching approaches by Bárbara Vitória - Thursday, 8 June 2017, 10:26 PM 

  The author presents different approaches to teaching writing, such as controlled approach, process approach, and genre approach. On page 9, he describes the Australian genre approach that is divided into three steps: modeling, joint construction of the text, and independent construction of the text. This caught my attention because I am planning to do something similar with my students. First, I ask them what they know about the topic. So, we brainstorm. Second, I explain the text type, its characteristics, and structure, showing some examples. I am also considering asking them to do an exercise about text organization. Finally, they write a draft and, after peer reviewing and editing, they give it to me for feedback.  What do you think? Do you prefer another approach presented by Cheung?

My reply:  Re: Teaching approaches by Letícia Nazareth - Thursday, 8 June 2017, 10:31 PM

 Hi, Bárbara! I agree that this approach is one of the bests because, by brainstorming, students will feel free to talk about their feelings and thoughts about the topic, and it will be easier, then, to write, after you explain about the structure of the text. I plan to do something similar with my students, too, just changing a little bit: I intend to ask them to choose a good theme, and, after that, do a voting to choose the best one.
